I understand this may seem nefarious to some, but I'd rather not advertise my server publicly. What can I set in my .cfg to disable all heartbeats with activision/gamespy/other? I plan on only using this server for a LAN enviroment and don't need WAN users to be able to connect.

What other variables in my .cfg stick out to you like a sore thumb to you as "obvious LAN friendly" options?

Thanks for the help in advance.

for lan only servers

change the command line from +set dedicated 2 to +set dedicated 1 :D

In addition, I would also block inbound 28960, at a minimum, on your firewall/router. In fact, you should probably block ALL inbound access from the WAN.

Thanks very much guys, the forums have been indespensible for helping me setup my dedicated linux servers.


edit: should I comment the "seta sv_master1" lines?
